Broom 36
The 36 was part of the fast offshore range with a planing hull but without a keel, making it a fast boat for offshore passages but still suitable for inland cruising.
The interior layout makes the most of the limited space with an offset double berth in the aft cabin as well as separate shower and WC cabins. The deck saloon has to double up as the dining area, with steps down to the galley, forward heads and guest V-berth.
Most boats were fitted with twin Volvo’s, typically 220HP.

Hi Tom, We've just bought a Broom 36 with 225 HP Perkin Sabres. The documentation shows that it originally had Teignbridge Eng. 24” diameter 4 blade propellers. It also shows that both port and starboard engine originally used a 2.04:1 gear ratio and a 26” propeller pitch. However, hand annotations from a previous owner show that this was subsequently modified: Port gear ratio:2.04:1 Starboard gear ratio: 2.10:1 (originally 2.04:1) Port propeller pitch: 24.5” (originally 26”) Starboard propeller pitch: 23.5” (originally 26”) I hope that helps.

Hi there, Can anyone tell me what size/throw propellers were fitted to the Broom 36 originally. We have 220 HP Mercruisers which rev to 3400 rpm. Kind regards,
